The American mezzo-soprano and voice instructor, Lisa Walker Rader, obtained her Bachelor of Science degree in Business and Psychology from Milligan College (1979-1983)
Lisa Rader has been singing in the Atlanta area for over 25 years (since 1997). Dr. William Baker gave her solo career a start, when he selected her as soprano soloist for his DeKalb Choral Guild's performance of Schubert's Mass in G. She joined the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra Chorus, Chamber Chorus and the Robert Shaw Chamber singers in the early 1990's and continues to sing with the two groups still in existence. She has performed as soprano soloist all around the Atlanta area including Tucker, Lawrenceville, Athens and Atlanta proper, in such works as George Frideric Handel's Messiah and John Rutter's Requiem. She has appeared with the ensembles of the Choral Foundation three times, having performed in Dietrich Buxtehude's Membra Jesu Nostri in February 2014 with the William Baker Festival Singers; George Frideric Handel's Israel in Egypt under Lynn Swanson with the Cobb Summer Singers; and J.S. Bach's Mass in B minor BWV 232, also under Lynn Swanson in March 2016. She presently lives in McDonough, Georgia, with her husband and daughter. |
